The Alec Brown Gold Cup Cue, made by Peradon

Description: This is a quite uncommon picture plate cue which celebrates Alec's victory in the daily mail's "gold cup" tournaments (of 1938 & 39). Alec brown is most famously known for having brought about a change in the rules of snooker, when he produced a 'fountain pen' sized cue during a match in 1938. This cue is ash shafted with a hand spliced ebony butt with classic green veneer - a nice player too!

Specs: Length: 58.00inches, weighing 17.00ounces.Cue diameters: 10.70mm at the tip, 13.70mm at 12in, and 31.50mm at the butt.

(Date circa :1950 - 1960)

The Horace Lindrum Picture Cue, made by Peradon

Description: This is the younger version of the Horace Lindrum picture badge cue - less common than the cue which features a later picture of Horace. It's sad to note that in the past few years the commercial price of this cue, and machine spliced cues in general has fallen - make no mistake, a machine spliced cue can be every bit as good to play with as a hand spliced cue! This cue has a maple shaft with machine spliced ebony butt with maple veneer & rosewood front splice.

Specs: Length: 57.75inches, weighing 16.50ounces.Cue diameters: 10.50mm at the tip, 13.80mm at 12in, and 30.10mm at the butt.
